Biography
Shlomo Teittleman was born in New York City, New York in 1928 to a Hasidic Jewish family, and he became the co-owner of the Flyaway Motel alongside his son, Hillel Teittleman. In 1999, he hired the DiMeo crime family to settle a dispute with his son-in-law Ariel, who wanted 50% of the family motel in exchange for Teittleman's abused daughter securing the divorce that she wanted. However, he later cut his own deal, giving his son-in-law 15% of the bsuiness and attempting to pay off the DiMeos with cash instead of their promised share. Tony Soprano roughed him up, forcing him to give the Mafia its promised 25% of the business, leaving Teittleman with 60% of his business. The motel would be used by the Mafia for meetings, illegal businesses, prostitution, and the executive card game.
